Frequently asked questions
What core network functions should I expect from Switch?
Expect frame forwarding at Layer 2 with MAC learning, VLAN segmentation, link aggregation and QoS. Managed models may add Layer 3 routing, access control lists, and SNMP for monitoring.
How can I determine if Switch supports Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Review the product specifications for PoE/PoE+ or UPoE labeling, per-port power budget, and total power capacity; also confirm power connectors and thermal considerations for sustained PoE loads.
What performance metrics are important when evaluating Switch?
Key metrics include switching capacity/throughput, packet forwarding rate (pps), port speeds (1/10/25/40/100 G), latency, oversubscription, buffer size, and CPU utilization for control-plane tasks.
How is management and monitoring typically handled for Switch?
Management commonly uses CLI, web-based GUI, SNMP, Syslog, NetFlow/sFlow, and REST APIs; check for configuration backup, firmware update mechanisms, and integration with automation or monitoring tools.
